Safety Awareness For Everyone (SAFE)

In addition to providing walking escorts throughout the main UW-Milwaukee campus area SAFE walkers keep an eye out for suspicious activity and are able to assist with safety related questions.

All SAFE walkers undergo training with UWM Police and are able to assist in a variety of situations. Each team carries a two-way radio and is in direct contact with UWM Police.
